Administration of AG490 decreases the senescence of umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells and promotes the cytotherapeutic effect in liver fibrosis.
Article in Cell death discovery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The therapeutic potential of umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) transplantation in liver fibrosis has been highlighted. However, the fate of transplanted MSCs in the fibrotic microenvironment remains unclear. In this study, we aim to uncover the fate of transplanted MSCs and develop targeting strategies that could enhance the therapeutic efficacy of MSC therapy in liver fibrosis. We used human UC-MSCs as the study object. For in vitro experiments, we stimulated UC-MSCs with several fibrotic-related factors (Liver fibrotic Factors, LF), including TGFβ, TNFα and IFNγ for downstream investigations. We co-cultured LF-treated UC-MSCs with hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 to assess the anti-fibrotic effect. We showed that upon LF stimulation, UC-MSCs exhibited reduced anti-fibrotic activity and underwent rapid senescence. Pathway analysis showed that JAK/STAT3 signaling was highly activated upon LF stimulation, which significantly elevated senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) and senescence in UC-MSCs and could be reversed by a specific JAK inhibitor AG490. Moreover, using both carbon tetrachloride (CCl
